Ben M. Angel notes: There were significant problems in the chronology of a couple of the assertions related to this profile. First, Tazewell County, Virginia, wasn't settled by European colonists until 1771, so his ability to marry in the territory of the county is questionable. Gibson County, way out in western Tennessee, was not open for American settlers until 1819 - the first non-native cabin was built only at that time. In theory, it is possible that he could have died in the county, but not at all likely. There is no supporting evidence presented to back a death within the boundaries of that modern county, which was not created until 1823.
